So guilty of the hay thing.
When people ask you how you can stand the smell and you say "what smell?".
When your horses get more of your love then your own siblings
When you see a golf course and think to your self how much your horses would love it.
When you watch a movie and see a horse in it, you try to guess the breed, gender and hight.
Adding on to that you can't help picking out all the riding mistakes.

Hubby was backing me up to our gooseneck one time and when it was time for me to stop he said whoa......
Another is going in to the grocery store without makeup, hair with hay in it, and dirty barn clothes......and you don't even care what people think

The night of the superbowl, I was with about 20 guys/teenage boys when that clydesdale commercial came on. I got a big lump in my throat, and my eyes watered up at the end, and a bunchof the guys started giving me a bunch of crap about it. But it was okay..... it's a horse thing, they wouldn't have understood. I had been gone for about 10 days only a few weeks before, and when I came home I went to see how my Sonny was. (He's a 13 yo, turns 14 tomorrow, thoroughbred) When he saw me I got one of those low nickers, and he trotted over to the gate to wait for me. Before I couild get the gate open, he put his nose right up in my face, and we had to exchange breath, another low nicker, and then I went into the pasture and we walked around for awhile. It just doesn't get any better than that.

My horse coliced and I was out there for 3 or 4 hours walking her and trying to relax her until the vet got here, and then holding her for the tubing and walking her around some more. The next day I went out there to see how she was doing and as soon as she saw me she stopped eating and walked right up to me with a low nicker and gave me her head to scratch her favorite spot. My heart melted!!!

Don't feel bad - just tell them all even Stone Cold Steve Austin cried!! (or at least that's what he tweeted ;))
